Including entire commit body in release note

[nhidtran]

Hello! When the commit below gets analyzed and outputted on the release note, only the commit title is outputted. Is it possible to include the additional commit description/body in the release note?

release.config.js

const verifyConditions = [
  [
    "@semantic-release/changelog",
    {
      changelogFile: "CHANGELOG.md"
    }
  ],
  [
    "@semantic-release/git",
    {
      assets: ["CHANGELOG.md"]
    }
  ]
];
const analyzeCommits = [
  [
    "@semantic-release/commit-analyzer",
    {
      preset: "angular",
      releaseRules: [
        {
          // e.g.: next upgrade, large refactors, removing large chunks of code
          type: "breaking",
          release: "major"
        },
        {
          // e.g.: next upgrade, large refactors, removing large chunks of code
          type: "BREAKING",
          release: "major"
        },
        {
          // e.g. the new new hottest features
          type: "feat",
          release: "minor"
        },
        {
          // e.g. bugfixes
          type: "fix",
          release: "patch"
        },
        {
          // commits that need to be released outside of the release process
          type: "hotfix",
          release: "patch"
        },
        {
          // commits that need to be released outside of the release process
          type: "HOTFIX",
          release: "patch"
        },

        },
        // e.g. feat(no-release): will skip release based off of type

Have you had any luck with this? I'd also love to have my commit bodies included in the changelog.

Hi. Any news about it? I'm looking for a way to add more info but all my attemps fail.

I'm try to use conventionalcommits parser with the template below but keeps add just the header to release-notes

<type>(<optional scope>): <description>
empty separator line
<optional body>
empty separator line
<optional footer>

I've also wanted this for a long time and managed to get it to work with the following configuration: https://github.com/kleinfreund/yet-another-color-picker/blob/77d49f41199eb5e1c8f29bb3e7e37d5d88819233/release.config.js#L5-L16 (which is admittedly not exactly simple). For more details, refer to my answer to a StackOverflow question asking for the same thing: https://stackoverflow.com/a/77548066/2036825

(I also opened an issue in conventional-changelog/conventional-changelog#1166 to simplify this approach, but without success.)
